Making serious money from other people's creative work? Sound like any publishers you know? I'm not sure if the US laws against Cartels create applicable criminal offences, so make no comment on this aspect. I suppose at least an author has the chance of receiving some money from a publisher for their work, which can't be said of the Pirate Bay.

Laws and Court Rulings which can't realistically be enforced tend to create a contempt for the law.
